True Me Finger Scanners

True Me Finger Scanners

By Piers Fawkes on October 10, 2006

Gizmodo points to a device that is aimed to reveal a lot of information about us to websites and services. Web browsers can swipe their fingers on the True Me device to scan fingerprints to highlight who they really are. Gizmodo says:

“It has a cool-looking fingerprint sensor that plugs into your PC, and eliminates the need for entering passwords, user names, or anything else…We’d sure like to eliminate pins, passports, IDs, secret questions, and all that other silliness that goes with authentication.”

But will it let us wear our Red Coats?
